Kevin De Bruyne - Page 4 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Starts and plays 90 De Bruyne played the full 90 while registering four shots and five crosses in Saturday's 1-0 win against Chelsea.

Impact De Bruyne had some doubt about him for Saturday's FA Cup match due to fatigue, but that did not come to fruition, as he played the full 90. It wasn't the Belgian's best game on the field, but you could say the same for most of City's team. It was at least a bright spot to see him on the field after slight concerns of some fatigue creeping in after a grueling start to April, as he should now be okay to finish out the season as they try to maintain the top spot in the table.

Dealing with fatigue De Bruyne might be rested for Saturday's FA Cup clash with Chelsea, manager Pep Guardiola announced."Kevin was exhausted after five months out injured. That is normal. We will see...

Impact De Bruyne isn't dealing with any sort of injury but is simply in need of some rest during a busy part of the schedule. With the Premier League title still up for grabs it makes sense that De Bruyne would be rested in the FA Cup. Erling Haaland is in a similar boat and also could be rested Saturday.

Nets goal in elimination match De Bruyne scored one goal to go with six shots (three on goal), 21 crosses (three accurate) and 13 corners in Wednesday's 1-1 (5-4) penalty shootout loss against Real Madrid.

Impact De Bruyne got back on the scoresheet Wednesday, netting a goal in the 76th minute to tie the game before the club's eventual loss in penalty kicks. This gave the attacker his third goal contribution in UCL play, now having 12 in all competitions this season in his 14 appearances since returning from injury in January. He also had an immaculate game crossing the ball, as he registered 21, only falling two short of his season-high in a match of 22. Although, most of them came from corner kicks, as he attempted 13.

Productive day in the attack De Bruyne registered five crosses (two accurate), five shots (three on target) and seven chances created in Saturday's 5-1 win against Luton Town.

Impact De Bruyne was back in the starting XI Saturday after going unused off the bench in their last match against Real Madrid due to an illness, putting up a great display in the attack despite not bagging a goal contribution. The club will now hope their star player can stay on the pitch for the rest of the remaining games as they approach a possible second straight UCL title and fourth Premier League title, as he has only played in four of the team's past seven matches, only seeing six minutes in one of those appearances.

Stays on bench with illness De Bruyne stayed on the bench in Tuesday's Champions League match because of an illness, according to manager Pep Guardiola. "In the last meeting in the hotel he was playing. He di...

Impact The news of the illness came out of nowhere, as De Bruyne was a surprise absence from the XI Tuesday. He'll have a few days to recover before Saturday's league match and then the second leg against Real Madrid next Wednesday. Given that he's well removed from injury, there's a real chance he starts both matches, coming off a two-goal, one-assist performance at Crystal Palace.

Nets 100th goal for City De Bruyne scored two goals and assisted once from three shots and four chances created in Saturday's 4-2 win against Crystal Palace.

Impact De Bruyne hit a major landmark Saturday, as he notched his 100th goal with the club after netting in the 13th and 70th minute of the win. He also gained an assist in the 66th minute after finding Erling Haaland. This gave the Belgian his ninth goal contribution in league play this season, having three goals and six assists. He also has a pretty solid performance outside of his goals, registering three shots, four chances created and 11 crosses in an amazing display.

Impact De Bruyne didn't come off the bench at all during Wednesday's 4-1 win over Aston Villa, so in theory he should be fully fit for Saturday's clash. Still with a plethora of other attacking options it's clear City don't want to risk losing their prolific attacking midfielder.

Leads match 16 crosses De Bruyne recorded 16 crosses (three accurate) and six corners in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Arsenal.

Impact De Bruyne put on probably the best display of any City player Sunday, as they notched two tackles, four chances created and a match-high of 16 crosses. However, he still came short of his season-high in a match, as he has registered 22 on two separate occasions this season.

Ready for Arsenal clash De Bruyne (groin) is in the Starting XI for Sunday's match against Arsenal.

Impact De Bruyne will need to pass a late fitness test Saturday and Sunday to get back on the pitch against Arsenal. The attacking midfielder is injury prone, but for such an important match it might be deemed worthwhile to rush him back for Sunday's clash.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

Spotted in training De Bruyne (groin) took part in training Thursday, ahead of Sunday's clash with Arsenal.

Impact De Bryune was stretching with his teammates Thursday, though it's not clear how much of training he was able to take part in. The attacking midfielder getting back on the pitch would be a huge boon in Sunday's title six-pointer. Still De Bruyne has struggled with injuries frequently and rushing him back could be risky.

Impact De Bruyne seems set for another spell on the sideline, a concerning twist for the attacking midfielder who has already missed a larger portion of the season due to injury. He will hope that the international break is enough time for a full recovery though rushing him back would be less than ideal, as De Bruyne often aggravates injuries coming back earlier than expected.

Impact De Bruyne's injury plague season continues as he picked up a new groin injury. Despite missing the first three months of the season, he was able to start six of the nine games played, recording two goals and six assists, including five assists in a row. Oscar Bobb could return to the starting XI in his place, with either Julian Alvarez or Phil Foden also options to move to the center attacking midfield.

Assists early De Bruyne assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Liverpool.

Impact De Bruyne got on the scoresheet with an assist for the opening goal during Sunday's draw. He was brought off in the second half as Manchester City were left behind the ball struggling to overcome a continuous Liverpool onslaught. Still De Bruyne is one of the most creative players in England and a lock for the City starting XI.

MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE

Active in the attack De Bruyne generated five shots (zero on goal), 12 crosses (zero accurate) and seven corners in Sunday's 3-1 victory over Manchester United.

Impact De Bruyne was all over in the attack Sunday, creating constant problems in his 90 minutes of play after registering a solid five shots while leading the match in chances created and crosses, with six and 12, respectively. Since returning nine contests ago, the Belgian has now appeared in eight of those contests, recording 22 shots, 25 chances created and 81 crosses to go along with seven-goal contributions across that span.

Four assists in rout De Bruyne provided four assists during Tuesday's 6-2 FA Cup win over Luton Town.

Impact De Bruyne was on fire in the FA Cup, providing four assists as he and Erling Haaland proved to be unstoppable. De Bruyne going the full 90 was some surprise, but the attacking midfielder should still be in line for a major role against Manchester United on Sunday. De Bruyne remains one of the top players in England when available.

Makes cameo appearance from bench De Bruyne registered one cross (not accurate) in Saturday's 1-0 win over AFC Bournemouth. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 96th minute.

Impact De Bruyne made a brief appearance Saturday from the bench after 84 minutes, replacing Mateo Kovacic. The Belgian is being eased back into action following a recurring hamstring injury which has kept him out for most of the season. He looked lively and hopefully is now set to retake his usual starting position with the team.
